Henry Paulson tops annual list of highest-paid business men

In 2022 it looked like the business man’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Monday (November 4) that Paulson is the highest-paid business man in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between October 2023 and October 2024, a nearly $30 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The American business man has an estimated net worth of $185 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Paulson Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Palm Beach Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderpaulson - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Henry) and a fashion line called “Henry Paulson Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Henry fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
